Authors’ Comment

“The Animals Farm” was born from the beneficiaries desire to create a space dedicated to the interaction of the public and especially of children with as many domestic animals as possible. The idea took shape by designing a farm – park.
Thus the deserted barn, from the old farm, has generated an approach for recovery and architectural conversion. Relocated and regenerated gained a new function: access pavilion and element of signal, with reference to traditional values.
The wooden structure and especially the spatial morphology of the barn were kept and highlighted by the expression continuity of wood in all its forms, from structure, facades and finishes.
As an attraction point, the pavilion includes an area for exotic birds, surrounded by the staircase leading to the floor above the ground.
